What makes it a ProKicker Mercury fits the ProKicker gearcase with gear shafts larger than those on its standard outboards, matched here to a Command Thrust four-blade high-thrust aluminum propeller, aimed at holding a heavier boat on plane at low speed rather than chasing top speed across the water.
